Jaja, een verborgen klim, welke je zeker mee moet pakken. Althans....als je een beetje van het klimmen bent.

This was my children's 1st categorised climb! Really quiet lanes steep at the start but gets easier.

Magnificent! It starts out steep, especially by Eifel standards, but once you get past the poles, it becomes a lot gentler and you are treated to magnificent views. Better to do this climb than the alternative on the through road, I think. The other alternative is just a bit steeper, I think.

Schitterend! Het begint steil, zeker voor Eifelbegrippen maar zodra je langs de paaltjes bent wordt het een stuk vriendelijker en word je getrakteerd op schitterende uitzichten. Beter deze klim nemen dan het alternatief over de doorgaande weg, denk ik. Het andere alternatief is volgens mij nog net iets steiler.

Nice climb on a very quiet road! First part is pretty tough, then when you get out of the village, nice view on the right side. Road surface is not fantastic, but more than fine.

Leuk klimmetje op een zeer rustige weg! Eerste gedeelte is behoorlijk pittig, daarna als je uit het dorpje fietst, mooi uitzicht aan de rechter zijde. Wegdek is niet fantastisch, maar meer dan prima.
